DR MOHAMED AL KUWAITI has been a busy man, of late. Kuwaiti, head of cyber security for the government of the United Arab Emirates, has been on his toes, what with the UAE being hard at work at cementing the India-UAE-Israel partnership for shaping a new Middle East. The partnership is based on regional security integration to beat common threats. The three countries are also building alliances to strengthen economies by creating food corridors and inking agreements on energy, transportation, trade and health care.
For all future projects and partnerships, securing the digital space is key, and the cyber security heads of the three countries are joining forces. Take, for instance, Israel, which has cutting-edge technologies at its disposal. “Artificial intelligence is helping us create an Iron Dome in the Israeli cyber security space,” said Ronen Bar, director of Israel Security Agency, which is also known as the Shin Bet. Creating a cyber dome that goes beyond Israel’s cyberspace to help its partners is not a distant thought. And, it is wooing the UAE big time.
In the last fortnight, Kuwaiti travelled to two ends of a geostrategically significant arc—India and Israel. He carried a basketful of innovative ideas and technology for cooperation in cyber security to the two countries. His visit is symbolic in light of the I2U2 (India, Israel, the UAE and the US) grouping, reaffirming support to the Abraham Accords for Israeli-Emirati normalisation that transcends political or regional challenges.
